Review of tenpa 1.35x viewfinder extender

xdivider · 20th October 2008

Promised the seller Ill do a review but kinda bz. Its from China and was said to be a clone of the kps 1.3x. First impression last week while shooting was that for a specs guy like me, it vignettes more noticeably than the original omes-53. A rough estimate would be u lose ard 10% of the whole frame while gaining pretty noticeable magnification in the middle (need to move eyes a bit to see the sides). For pple who only use their naked eyes, u can juz about get the whole frame with the corners still visible but slightly darkening. My friend tested the Canon version with a 40D and felt it improved his manual focussing quite a bit. Ill probably put up some photos when i have the time.
